Dell hopes to make the price more affordable.

Dell is saying it's ready for DisplayPort 1.4, it just needs updated monitor drivers to achieve it. That means it will support 8K at 60 Hz over a single DisplayPort cable.

Speaking of Dell.
Friends of ours got a new Dell Laptop for Christmas and asked me to configure it.
I was surprised to see it had an AMD CPU and Graphics.
I thought Michael Dell said "over his dead body would he ever put a AMD chip in any of his products"???

Preorders are now available, it's shipping on April 14, and you'll still need 2 DP cables: https://www.neowin.net/news/dells-insane-8k-monitor-is-now-available-to-pre-order-for-just-under-5000

They're sort of jumping the gun here!
Polaris RX480 will run most properly coded games at 8K, but a person will need a Vega for the best 8k experience.

Quote:Overall an 8K monitor offers 33.2 megapixels of coverage, which in a 32-inch (31.5-inch) form factor gives 280 pixels per inch. 33.2 megapixels is four times that of UHD, which is 8.3 megapixels. Users wanting to play some AAA titles at 8K on this beast are going to run into walls with memory bandwidth very quickly, however eSports titles should run OK. Using some undocumented tricks, a pair of tests in our new set of gaming benchmarks for CPU reviews can render at 8K or even 16K without needing a monitor, so you might see some numbers in due course showing where we stand with GPU power on this technology. It’s worth noting that Raja Koduri, SVP of AMD’s Radeon Technology Group, has stated that VR needs 16K per-eye at 144 Hz to emulate the human experience, so we're still a way off in the display technology reaching consumer price points at least.
From 2013 to 2016, the prices of UHD monitors fell from $3500-$5000 to $350-$500. Extrapolating this, users wanting an 8K panel on their desk in a more comfortable price bracket might have to wait until 2020 or so to get one. By then, 16K might exist, back at the $5000 price point. Maybe.
Dell’s UP3218K is now available to purchase on Dell’s website for $4999. Currently taking pre-orders, the estimated shipping date is set as April 17th for US50. Linus from LinusTechTips should be happy, as they just invested in a pair of 8K video cameras. Time to submit my own acquisition request…
